Cara Membuat Souvenir Gantungan Kunci Daun Kering Dari Resin || Tanpa Amplas

Summary

In this video, the creator demonstrates how to craft resin keychain souvenirs using Lycal 101 resin. The process includes measuring the resin and hardener, mixing them with dried flowers, and pouring the mixture into silicone molds. After allowing the resin to cure for about 7 hours, the keychains are removed from the molds, revealing crystal-clear, high-quality keychains. The video offers helpful tips for working with resin, including the importance of waiting for bubbles to rise before pouring and the differences between this resin and polyester-based alternatives. Viewers are encouraged to try this craft at home, with a link for purchasing materials and a discount code in the description.

Takeaways

• 😀 The video demonstrates how to create resin keychain souvenirs using a special resin material called Reaction Nikel 10 11.
• 😀 The materials required include Reaction Nikel resin, hardener, a silicone mold, keychain hooks, dried flowers for decoration, and a digital scale for precise measurements.
• 😀 The resin used in this project is clear and does not require sanding or polishing, unlike polyester resin, making it easier to use for beginners.
• 😀 The resin and hardener are mixed in a 3:1 ratio, meaning for every 3 parts of resin, 1 part of hardener is added.
• 😀 If a digital scale is unavailable, measurements can be made using tablespoons, with 3 tablespoons of resin and 1 tablespoon of hardener.
• 😀 After mixing the resin and hardener, the mixture is allowed to rest for a few minutes to let air bubbles rise before pouring into molds.
• 😀 The curing process takes around 6-7 hours for Reaction Nikel resin, much longer than polyester resin, which hardens in just 5 minutes.
• 😀 Dried flowers are used as decoration inside the resin, and the mixture is poured into molds, then allowed to cure until hard.
• 😀 The final product is a very clear and glossy keychain that maintains the color of the dried flowers without changing over time.
• 😀 The video encourages viewers to try making resin keychains at home, with potential for selling them online as a small business or as gifts.

Q & A

What type of resin is used for making the keychain?

The video uses reaction resin, specifically type 10 11, for making the keychain.

What is the main difference between reaction resin and polyester resin?

The main difference is that reaction resin (type 10 11) doesn't require sanding or polishing after pouring. It’s clear and ready to use once cured, while polyester resin needs to be sanded and polished for a smooth finish.

What ratio is used for mixing resin and hardener?

The recommended ratio for mixing resin and hardener is 3:1, meaning three parts resin to one part hardener.

How can you measure the resin and hardener without a digital scale?

If a digital scale is unavailable, you can use a measuring spoon. For example, three regular spoons of resin and one spoon of hardener.

What materials are used for decorating the keychain?

The keychain is decorated with dried flowers, which are placed in the mold before pouring the resin mixture.

How do you ensure there are no air bubbles in the resin mixture?

After mixing the resin and hardener, the mixture is allowed to sit for a few minutes to let any air bubbles rise and disappear before pouring into the mold.

How long does it take for the resin to cure?

The resin takes about 6-7 hours to cure completely, which is longer than polyester resin, which hardens in about 5 minutes.

What happens to the dried flowers after the resin is poured?

The dried flowers remain unchanged in color and appearance once the resin is cured. The clear resin encapsulates the flowers without altering their look.

What can the finished resin keychains be used for?

The finished resin keychains can be used as souvenirs, gifts, or even sold online, as shown in the video.

How can you attach the keychain hook after the resin has cured?

Once the resin is fully cured, the keychain hook is attached to the resin piece. The video shows that the hook is added after the resin is completely dry and hard.
